beautiful movie
describe this movie in 3 words? beautiful. real. human. This movie is a completely accurate representation of 13 year old me. You’re lonely, anxious, envious. the only thing you want in the world is to BE someone, and being the ‘cool kid’ seems like the best option at the time; it just seems like they have it all; the friends, the life, the joy. There’s never a harder time to just ‘be yourself’, and that’s what everyone is always telling you, but you’re barely over the kid mark, you don’t know who that is, or how to figure it out. This movie was so touching, I feel everyone can pull their own things out of it. for me, it was acceptance in who you are, the good, the bad, you’re human, and that’s ok. you can’t be one or the other, and you can’t make yourself be. you can’t hide from who you are, either. I loved how they represented anxiety, and had joy say she’d just tell her to ‘stop worrying so much’ that’s what everyone tells you. it’s what my parents told me. but it’s not that simple, and this movie really SHOWS that. it’s such a scary, unsure time, and you have no idea how to navigate it. we need more movies like this. if you have a teen, this movie really has the ability to make you feel understood, and less alone, because we’re all turbulent during those ages. susceptible to peer pressure, and envy, anxiety. and it’s all just part of the process. it’s normal. we are, teens are. I recommend this to every tween, teen, and older. it’s fine for younger kids as well. I laughed multiple times, and found it very quirky and fun.
